When the San Jose City Council meets just miles from the Apple and Google campuses, its members shut down all portable electronic devices, as though they were in a theater. If they're on and they get a text or e-mail from a lobbyist or anyone discussing city business, they must say so right then and there. Experts say San Jose's policy is a model for open government in the digital age. Other cities and state legislatures are adopting their own rules at a time when officials are increasingly fielding requests for lawmakers' cellphone records, e-mails and text messages.]]></description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Mar 2010 19:50:56 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[EBay CEO Donahoe Was Paid $10.1 Million In 2009]]></title><guid>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/EBay.CEO.Donahoe.2.1576041.html</guid><link>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/EBay.CEO.Donahoe.2.1576041.html</link><description><![CDATA[EBay Chief Executive John Donahoe received compensation valued at $10.1 million in 2009, according to a regulatory filing Friday. That's 55 percent less than in 2008, when he got more stock and options. Donahoe, 49, has led the online auction site operator since Meg Whitman retired in March 2008.

According to a proxy statement eBay filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Donahoe's 2009 pay package included a salary of $934,615, up from $879,808 in 2008; a bonus of $522,917, up from $500,000; and a performance incentive of $1.6 million, up from zero.

The hostile bid comes a week after Lions Gate rejected Icahn's offer to buy a larger minority stake and rewrote its bylaws to make such a takeover attempt more difficult in the future. The new offer for all outstanding shares also raised the specter of Canadian government involvement because Icahn, an American, could own the Vancouver-based company and cause friction with the country's cultural policies.]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 21:02:40 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Initiative With Tax Hike For Mines Before NV Judge]]></title><guid>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/Nevada.judge.to.2.1574705.html</guid><link>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/Nevada.judge.to.2.1574705.html</link><description><![CDATA[Lawyers for the Nevada Mining Association are going before a judge in Carson City to try to block a ballot petition drive aimed at raising taxes on the mining industry. District Judge James Wilson scheduled a 2 p.m. hearing Friday on the bid to keep the initiative off the ballot this fall based on claims it's unconstitutional. A coalition of conservationists and labor leaders are pushing the measure that would tax a bigger share of the mines' profits before -- instead of expenses. They say mines don't pay their fair share in a state with serious budget woes despite producing more gold than any other in the nation.]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 20:51:55 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[BC-Merc Table,1st Add]]></title><guid>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/2.1575758.html</guid><link>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/2.1575758.html</link><description><![CDATA[]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 20:05:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Summary Box: Busy Week Shaping Up For IPOs]]></title><guid>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/Summary.Box.Next.2.1575848.html</guid><link>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/Summary.Box.Next.2.1575848.html</link><description><![CDATA[HOW MANY: There could be as many as seven IPOs debuting next week.

He is now in Year Two, and the odds that he will get to sign a bill before the November elections appear long. Grass-roots activists frustrated by the wait for a new system are organizing a rally Sunday in Washington by what they hope will be thousands of people from across the U.S. voicing their displeasure at the pace of action. In meetings last week, Obama sought to assure activists and the two senators who are drafting a bill of his "unwavering" commitment to comprehensive immigration overhaul. But the White House has also signaled that the issue is not among the legislative priorities it wants completed before the entire House and one-third of the Senate face voters in November.]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 18:32:52 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[BC-USDA-Calif Onions]]></title><guid>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/United.States.government.2.1575613.html</guid><link>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/United.States.government.2.1575613.html</link><description><![CDATA[]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 18:31:15 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[BC-USDA-Calif Fruit]]></title><guid>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/United.States.government.2.1575592.html</guid><link>http://cbs13.com/wireapbusinessca/United.States.government.2.1575592.html</link><description><![CDATA[]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 18:24:04 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
